We had a very enjoyable holiday

The property was very clean and in a good area within walking distance of 3 restaurants and within easy reach of the numerous wonderful beaches and surrounding towns and villages

However there were a few issues we were not happy about

1) the tile band around the pool was very dirty and discoloured and not inviting and needs to be refurbished

2) The pool was used by the family when we were not there which I don't think appropriate as we hired the property and pool for our own use

3) although states air conditioning we were asked to pay a charge as the owner said it is in the description but in Portuguese (although I never read this)

4) inadequate shaded areas for eating as no centre parasol in the table (the one on the end did not cover the table) and no shade over BBQ

5) a fluorescent strip light outside on the wall is not attractive or adequate lighting at night

6) towels were thin and rough and I had to find some clean ones myself in the adjoining garage

7) no proper kettle just a travel kettle
